New books (and more) added to the Gardner-Harvey Library in August!

We are adding many new items to the collection each month, and making sure that you can see them on display! Take a look at our New Books shelves or skim down our new materials list of items we added to the collection in August! We added 151 books, e-books, DVDs, and other items during that time, thanks to your selections and suggestions. The list can be sorted by call number, area of our collection, or by title. There is definitely something here for everyone!


Here are ten titles from the list, to give you an idea of what we've been buying: 

  • Get real : 49 challenges confronting higher education / William G. Tierney
  • The art of the national parks / by Fifty-Nine Parks
  • The sacred band : three hundred Theban lovers fighting to save Greek freedom / James Romm
  • Pornography and public health / by Emily F. Rothman
  • Death of a traveller : a counter investigation / Didier Fassin
  • I live a life like yours : a memoir / Jan Grue
  • The woman from Uruguay / Pedro Mairal
  • Brotherhood / Mohamed Mbougar Sarr
  • Playlist for the Apocalypse : poems / Rita Dove
  • God, human, animal, machine : technology, metaphor, and the search for meaning / Meghan O'Gieblyn
This tag will show you all of the prior lists of new materials, in reverse chronological order. We are eager to hear from you about individual items you would like us to buy, or types of items we should be on the look out for, or general subject areas we should build up in the collection.

If you have a suggestion of something to order, please use our "Tell GHL to Buy It" form, email John Burke (burkejj@miamioh.edu), or drop by the library with your request. And pass your general suggestions or comments about the collection to us in those same ways. 

Thanks again for keeping our collection vibrant and your information needs met!
